The shape of
the wing
fuel
tanks
is such
that
in certain maneuvers the fuel may
move
away from the tank
outlet.
If the ouflet
is uncovered, the fuel
flow
will
be
itrterrupted
and
a
temporary loss
of
power
may result. Pilots
can
prevent
inadvertent
uncovering
of
the outlet
by
avoiding
maneuvers which could
result
in uncovering the
outlet.
Extreme running
turning
takeoffs should be
avoided
as
fuel
flow
interruption
may
occur.
Prolonged slips or
skids
which result
in excess of 2000
feet
of
altitude
loss,
or
other
radical or extreme maneuvers
which
could
cause
uncovering
of the fuel
outlet
must be
avoided
as
fuel
flow interruption
may
occur
when tank being
used
is not full.
Anti4ollision
lights
should
not
be
operating
when
flying
through
overcast
and
clouds,
since
reflected
light
can
produce
spacial
disorientation.
Do
not
operate
strobe
lights
when
taxiing
in
the
vicinity
of
other aircraft.
The rudder
pedals
are suspended
from
a
torque tube which
extends across the
fuselage.
The
pilot
should become familiar with the
proper
positioning
of his feet
on
the
rudder
pedals
so as to avoid
interference
with the torque tube
when
moving the
rudder
pedals
or operating the
toe
brakes.
In an effort to avoid
accidents,
pilots
should
obtain
and study the
safety related
information
made
available
in
FAA
publications
such
as
regulations,
advisory
circulars, Aviation
News, AIM
and
safety
aids.
